BRENDA & THE TABULATIONS DRY YOUR EYES WLP PROMO MONO

I AM POSTING THE CREAM OF THE CROP OF A VERY NICE RECORD COLLECTION! CHECK MY OTHER LISTINGS FOR FIRST PRESSING BLUE NOTE, IMPULSE, AND OTHER JAZZ RARITIES! THESE WERE FROM AN ESTATE SALE COLLECTION AND IT SEEMS LIKE THE OWNER MAY HAVE BEEN A DJ. ALL OF THESE RECORDS HAVE BEEN METICULOUSLY CARED FOR AND SOUND AMAZING--IN MANY CASES THEY PLAY PERFECTLY!

**ALL RECORDS WILL SHIP IN A PLASTIC-LINED PAPER SLEEVE, AND WILL BE SHIPPED OUTSIDE JACKET TO AVOID DAMAGE. I PACKAGE THESE RECORDS IN LARGE CUSTOM BOXES WITH LOTS OF PADDING TO PROTECT THESE TREASURES. SEE GRADING SCALE AND ABOUT ME BELOW**


RECORD DESCRIPTION: BRENDA AND THE TABULATIONS "DRY YOUR EYES" (DIONN RECORDS, LPM 2000) WHITE LABEL PROMO!! GUARANTEED ORIGINAL!

MATRIX INFO (hand-written):
a)919 STUDIOS A10523 LBB    (crossed out)D-BT A –LPM-100 LW MR
b)919 STUDIOS A10523-X DGG   (crossed out)D-BT A –LPM-101 LW MR

ITEM CONDITION: RECORD IS EXCELLENT 88 WITH LIKE-NEW SHINE. THERE ARE 3 OR 4 LIGHT SLEEVE SCUFFS AND/OR NEEDLE DROP MARKS ON EACH SIDE, BUT THEY ARE SUPERFICIAL AND NOT DEEP SCRATCHES AT ALL. THERE IS SOME OCCASIONAL, VERY LIGHT BACKGROUND NOISE HERE AND THERE, BUT ABSOLUTELY NO POPS OR CLICKS. PLAYBACK GRADES EXCELLENT + 93 AND IS VERY STRONG AND CLEAR WITH NO SIGNAL DISTORTION, AND ANY BACKGROUND NOISE IS ONLY NOTICEABLE IN A FEW SILENT PARTS. THIS RECORD LOOKS LIKE NEW AT FIRST GLANCE, AND MARKS ARE ONLY VISIBLE WHEN CLOSELY INSPECTED UNDER A BRIGHT LIGHT. THE LABELS ARE NEAR MINT 95 WITH SIDE I SHOWING NO SIGNS OF USE, AND SIDE II SHOWING A FEW LIGHT SPINDLE MARKS. THE JACKET IS EXCELLENT 85 WITH LIGHT SURFACE, EDGE, AND CORNER WEAR. WHITE LABEL PROMOS OF THIS RECORD ALMOST NEVER SHOW UP FOR SALE, AND THE JACKET ALSO HAS "AUDITION RECORD" STAMPED ON THE BACK!! IT COULD BE YEARS BEFORE ONE SHOWS UP AGAIN! IF YOU ARE NOT FAMILIAR WITH THIS LP, "GOD ONLY KNOWS" IS A FABULOUS RENDITION OF THE PET SOUNDS CLASSIC, AND "THE WASH" IS SIMPLY WONDERFUL!

GRADING SCALE
ALL RECORDS VISUALLY GRADED UNLESS OTHERWISE NOTED. I WILL USE + OR - IF NEEDED FOR BORDERLINE ITEMS

MINT SEALED: SAYS IT ALL! JACKET WILL BE GRADED SEPARATELY TO ACCOUNT FOR ANY FLAWS

NEAR MINT/MINT 95-100: RECORD WILL LOOK BRAND NEW, NO VISIBLE SIGNS OF USE AND ONLY THE LIGHTEST OF SLEEVE MARKS MAY BE NOTICEABLE WHEN VIEWED DIRECTLY UNDER A BRIGHT LIGHT. JACKET AND LABELS WILL SHOW LITTLE TO NO SIGNS OF USE OR WEAR OF ANY KIND. ONLY THE NICEST, LIKE-NEW ITEMS WILL GET THIS TOUGH GRADE!

EXCELLENT 82-94: LOOKS GORGEOUS WITH MINOR FLAWS TO KNOCK IT DOWN FROM NEAR MINT. SHOULD STILL LOOK LIKE NEW AT A GLANCE.

VERY GOOD 70-79: RECORD AND/OR JACKET WILL SHOW SIGNS OF USE, BUT NOTHING MAJOR. RECORD WILL SHOW LIGHT MARKS FROM FREQUENT USE, BUT NO DEEP SCRATCHES, NO LOUD REPEATING POPS AND CERTAINLY NO SKIPS OR RETURNS. RING WEAR MAY START TO SHOW ON THE COVER, AND SMALL SEAM SPLITS MAY BE PRESENT, BUT SEAM MUST BE LARGELY INTACT.

GOOD 60-69: RECORD AND JACKET WILL SHOW SIGNIFICANT SIGNS OF USE. STILL A RECORD THAT IS PLAYABLE AND NO SKIPS OR RETURNS.

FAIR 50-59: A WELL LOVED ALBUM THAT WILL PLAY WILL SHOW MUCH USE AND LITTLE CARE. I WILL NEVER LIST A FAIR OR WORSE RECORD UNLESS IT IS INSANELY RARE IN ANY CONDITION!!

POOR 49 AND LOWER: SEAMS TOTALLY SPLIT, TONS OF SURFACE WEAR ON LABELS AND RECORD. AGAIN, ONLY IMPOSSIBLY RARE RECORDS WOULD EVER SHOW UP IN MY EBAY WITH THIS GRADE.

ABOUT ME: I AM AN EXTREMELY PICKY COLLECTOR. ALL RECORDS ARE INSPECTED UNDER A BRIGHT BULB AND I MAKE SURE TO NEVER OVERSTATE THE CONDITION OF MY COLLECTIBLES. MY EQUIPMENT IS A DUAL 606 TURNTABLE AND A SHURE M97XE CARTRIDGE THAT HAS LESS THAN 150 HOURS ON IT. IF YOU ARE EVER UNHAPPY WITH MY GRADING, I WILL GLADLY ACCEPT RETURNS AND REFUND YOUR MONEY!
STAY TUNED FOR MANY MORE RECORDS OF ALL GENRES!!
